How to format your references using the Austrian Studies citation style

This is a short guide how to format citations and the bibliography in a manuscript for Austrian Studies. For a complete guide how to prepare your manuscript refer to the journal's instructions to authors.

Using reference management software

Typically you don't format your citations and bibliography by hand. The easiest way is to use a reference manager:

Paperpile	The citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNote	Find the style here: output styles overview
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and others	The style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most reference managers.
BibTeX	BibTeX styles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author

Moore, Pete, ‘Antibodies Where You Want Them’, Nature, 426.6967 (2003), p. 729

A journal article with 2 authors

Reisz, R. R., and H. D. Sues, ‘The “feathers” of Longisquama’, Nature, 408.6811 (2000), p. 428

A journal article with 3 authors

Hurrell, J. W., Y. Kushnir, and M. Visbeck, ‘Climate. The North Atlantic Oscillation’, Science (New York, N.Y.), 291.5504 (2001), pp. 603–05

A journal article with 7 or more authors

Ganeshram, Raja S., and others, ‘Reduced Nitrogen Fixation in the Glacial Ocean Inferred from Changes in Marine Nitrogen and Phosphorus Inventories’, Nature, 415.6868 (2002), pp. 156–59

Books and book chapters

Here are examples of references for authored and edited books as well as book chapters.

Rega and F. Vestroni, Solid Mechanics and Its Applications (Springer Netherlands, 2005), pp. 47–57

Web sites

Sometimes references to web sites should appear directly in the text rather than in the bibliography. Refer to the Instructions to authors for Austrian Studies.

Blog post

Evans, Katy, ‘7 Weird Dog Behaviors And What They Mean’, IFLScience (IFLScience, 22 August 2016) <https://www.iflscience.com/plants-and-animals/7-weird-dog-behaviors-and-what-they-mean/>

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report

Government Accountability Office, Acid Rain: Federal Research Into Effects on Waters and Forests (U.S. Government Printing Office, 17 December 1985)

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertation

Sharma, Vishal, ‘Functional Characterization of Na+/Ca2+ Exchangers in Caenorhabditis Elegans’ (unpublished Doctoral dissertation, George Washington University, 2017)

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article

Qiu, Linda, ‘On What He Really Said, and Whom He Is Blaming for It’, New York Times, 24 March 2017, p. A13

In-text citations

References should be cited in the text
